The Mayors Fund to Advance New York City

The Mayor's Fund to Advance New York City: strengthening public programs through private partnerships.

The Mayor's Fund to Advance New York City is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization established to promote partnerships between the City and the private sector to enhance the City's ability to serve its residents. The Mayor's Fund is committed to facilitating partnerships that support NYC's emerging needs, while simultaneously evaluating the efficacy and merit of programs for future funding. Currently, the Mayor's Fund partners with 45 City Agencies and Offices to support over 100 different programs in areas including the environment, youth development, health, financial empowerment, volunteerism, and the arts. Several of these collaborations are informing the efforts of cities across the country and are helping to shape national policy.

Most recently, the Mayor's Fund has been accepting donations from foundations, corporations, and individuals to support restoration efforts across the five boroughs in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
